It is now fairly established, says a writer
In the Medical Press, that the common
wart, which is SO unsightly and often so
proliferous on the hands and face, can be
easily removed by small doses of sulphate
of magnesia taken internally. NJ. Coirat
of Lyons has drawn attention to this ex-
traordinary fact. Scvera lchildren treated
with three-grain doses of EPSON salts
morning and evening were promptly cur
ed. NJ. Aubert cites the case of ! woman
whose face was disfgured by these ex-
crescences,and who was cured In month
byIK drams of magnesia taken daily. An.
other medical man reports a case of very
large warts which disappeared in q fort
night from the daily administration of ten
grains of the salts.

Al Ibe age OF lteen she was mar.

eighieen. He husband was sub
srqurntly elected Judge By the
county, and tiih his wife moved
10 YazoO Citk then Manchester,
IN 1885. He first went into mer-
camille businTs and then studied
law, seeming finally one OF the
best praclices1n the county. He
died in 1870. 1our children bless
ed the union, al of whom are dead
without descadents.
Mrs. Nye Vas a devoted mem
ber OF The M4hodisL church and
her life a shining illustration Of
Christian Write. She thought no
evil of any yne and was always
ready with tle mantle OF charity
to cover the iHlts of her neigh.
Dor, wheneve pointed out or com
mehted upon 10 her presence. In
the days of b r affluence her hand
was ever omn TO the poor and
needy aud lFr kindness was as
unOstentatious AS 1t was certain.
She was devotedly attached 10
husband and children aud a warm
and cOnstant trieud.
Although attaining such great
age she had the use of her facul.
ties almost TO the last and died in
the hope Of a glorious rtsurrec-

especially the human nature OF

produce bis lecture for II every
word were given, IL would not
convey the impression made upon
the bearers. They went there
expecting something excellent,
they came away with expectation
not only realized, but surpassed.
Aud after listeulrg TO Bill Arp il
seems 20 us that his letters do not
do him justice; writing week after
week, he necessarily often falls
short Of his capacity, but during
the space Of his lecture Of enc
hour and half hs IL fully himself.

is some prospect OF his lecturing
again next fall aud Yazoo
